A link that I decided to follow was the National Association of the Education of Young we know it as the NAEYC website. As I was exploring this particular site it lead me into many directions. Some areas that caught my attention was the public policy, the accreditation of the organizaiton, conferences, and publications just to name a few.
Example, I found that the NAEYC conferences bring together early childhood educators representing many roles teaching staff, program administrators, students, researchers and teacher educators to discuss the latest ideas and learn from one another. The NAEYC Annual Conference & Expo is the largest early childhood education conference in the world, where tens of thousands of educators choose from hundreds of presentations and exhibits. The 2011 NAEYC Annual Conference & Expo will be in Orlando, FL on November 2-5. With this information provided it enlighten me on what I needed to do if I wanted to participate and gather new ideals from the organization.
Another example with the publications NAEYC offers a large selection of educational resources for early childhood professionals and others, including books, brochures, videos, posters, and periodicals. All members receive a subscription to the NAEYC print publication of their choice: Young Children or Teaching Young Children. These are just some examples on the direction these particular links lead me to.
I found that these links did lead me to information on the understanding of equity and excellence in early care and education and the different types of programs that are offered for the assistance for the families.
